Was really far removed from the sort of stuff I was listening to then, and I didn't really pay it much attention. I kept getting drawn back for another listen though, and finally realised how great it is. Don't really talk to the friend now though :(

Loads of fans on here, as you may discover. If I haven't heard for a while then I start to question whether it really is my album of 2011, above Destroyer, AWFTS, Tim Hecker etc. Then I put it on and realise it definitely is. Welcome is a great track btw, but you'll learn.;

One of my favourite albums ever, strange as that may sound. Not one I listen to much, but a record I've had some amazing experiences with, usually when walking around strange places in the rain.. haven't listened to it since going on a long walk around Thamesmead in late November last year. It's quite unlike any other record I've ever heard. I find so much electronic music really self aware and inward looking, but this album is just the opposite. It's really pure.
